  1. I have been experiencing a lot of hair loss related to my malabsorption of Iron. Now that I'm on an infusion regimin until I'm 'healed' it has slowed down.
  2. Amour is brand name under the ConAgra family. ConAgra has been participating in the testing of the new food labeling for allergans. If it's in there, you should be able to see it on the label. That said, I did the additional research since the older packaging is still floating around. The sausages are okay but the meatballs are not (and clearly labeled...
  3. That is a really cool site. If you get a business going, or even just get gluten-free menu choices where you work, that would be great. I know I need more restuarant choices.
  4. I was having trouble with the GFP Sandwich Bread Mix (way too much gas in the top of the loaf) and recently tried the Bob's Red Mill Homemade Wonderful mix. It came out really moist and light and has a good flavor. I use the mixes when I'm pressed for time and just want to through it in and press go.
  5. I agree with Barbara - those pretzels are great. I spent 2 hours at Whole Foods today (it's an hour from us) just browsing through all the gluten-free stuff. Be sure to pick up a list at the customer service desk of the foods they carry. Each store has one just for them, since they don't all carry the same products. Happy shopping.
  6. Didn't know about the orange box either. Reading is much faster now. What does the 'pinned' mean?
  7. I'm hoping to wean myself from needing them but they are just so convenient. I'm rolling my kitchen over to all gluten-free slowly but surely and my family is having to get used to many new tastes. Guess I thought if I could at least keep the look the same, they might not notice so much. I'll start looking for a recipe as well. Too bad I don't live...
  8. Thanks for the heads up. I usually heat tortillas in the oven wrapped in foil. My microwave makes them tough. I think I'll give these a try since I used them for everything before.
  9. Has anyone tried the torillas from Food For Life? I'm still new on the diet and these would help out tons if they are any good. I did not care for the rice bread from EnerG and wondered if these would have the same snady texture. Many, many thanks (as always) for everyones thoughts. I learn so much with every discussion.
  10. Is dry mustard considered safe? Mine is made by Durkee and lists mustard flour as the only ingredient. I have it stuck in my head that is not safe, but I don't know why. Does anyone know for sure?
  11. We asked at our favorite liquor store about gluten-free beers and they didn't have any but said if we found the brand name and brewery they would order for us!! Great customer service, but we live in a pretty small town. I'm looking forward to having beer again.
  12. Thanks to all for this lively discussion!! My husband is non-gluten-free but tries really hard to keep gluten-free with me. He has been wanting to try these beers since we haven't been able to 'enjoy' the football season together properly. We will be trying all we can find.
  13. Thanks Idahogirl for the tip on the mushroom soup and to everyone who has contributed thoughts to this. I am experiencing pretty bad withdrawl depression right now. As my husband and I go through the pantry removing all the 'offensive' (and soon to be missed) items, I find myself in tears. Good thing my husband is super supportive. He is looking...
  14. Glad to see so many response to this question that I was afraid to ask. I'm at the same place as Jason's Mom (and now buying stock in Kleenex). Until I hit rock bottom with the anemia, I didn't have any noticable symptoms. How hard it is not to cheat just a little when you don't feel any backlash. My big struggle today is how to feed my family things...
  15. Has anyone used the Restuarant Guide that can be ordered with the cards? I love eating out and have really felt the pinch of having to be careful. Thanks.
  16. How much of the general wheat products have you replaced in your diet with comparable tolerated items vs just given up completely on that type of food? I'm really new at this gluten-free stuff since I was confirmed only yesterday but have been 'on the diet' for about a month. I'm finding it very hard to adjust to the loss of breads, cereals and pasta in...
